We recently spent a weekend at Witton Castle Country Park, and the castle itself was the highlight. This richly historic, Grade II* listed gem dates back to the early 15th century, rebuilt and restored over centuries – and today it forms the heart of a vibrant holiday park set in 330+ acres of woodland, lakes, and activity areas .
The castle’s crenellated towers and fortified walls create the perfect backdrop to a uniquely charming park. It’s clear the caretakers work hard to preserve the structure, with the exterior and grounds looking well-maintained and inviting . You can wander through castle grounds and enjoy panoramic views amidst the architecture.
During our stay in a modern, well-equipped caravan, we appreciated the peaceful surroundings and the friendly staff who were especially great with kids . On-site facilities include a café, bar, fish-and-chip shop, playgrounds, soft play, lakes with paddleboards and fishing — so there’s something for all ages .
Families will love the relaxed vibe, tranquil woodlands, and castle charm blending history with holiday fun. Whether you’re strolling the lawns or launching a kayak, this place balances heritage and leisure beautifully. Witton Castle Country Park offers a memorable break—historic, serene, and family-friendly. Highly...
Read moreWe have stayed at Witton many times over the years. Every caravan we have hired has been of excellent quality with all the amenities you need for your stay. We have always traveled with our dog and unlike some sites you are still offered great accommodation. We have used all the facilities the castle has to offer over the years - the restaurant with its fabulous open fire, the bars (which have all been refurbished over the past couple of years - the intricate paintings and decor are amazing), the games rooms and cinema which our daughter loved, outside play area, crazy golf and the wide open spaces to picnic and play outdoors. Around the site and local area there are some wonderful walks, location, wildlife and nature are stunning in all seasons. We have always found the staff around the park friendly and helpful and we like the added touch of security on the gate, gives you that extra peace of mind. We have visited a couple of times and special events have been held on the large grassed area in front of the castle, car shows, BBQs, music events etc. Always had great holidays here, we love the family feel to the place, lots to do without the glare of neon and noise.
